In 1777, Sybil Ludington rode nearly 40 miles overnight at only 16 years old, raising 400 men, and even fighting off a highway man with her father‘s musket to alert Americans that the British were coming. It was double the length of Paul Revere and George Washington personally thanked her for her service. Sybil Ludington Statue Carmel, NY Sybil’s area & the city of Danbury were burned to the ground by Redcoats. Her reaction was to get on a horse in the pouring rain, in the middle of the night, and cross state lines to warn her neighbors.
MAGA will not dampen my love for MY country & sense of pride in all that hard-working, spirited Americans have accomplished.

#SybilLudington was 16 when she rode twice the distance as Paul Revere, in the dark & pouring rain. City was burned to the ground so she got on a horse to warn her neighbors.

#OnThisDay 1777:
British troops threatened to attack, and it fell to a brave patriot to risk life and limb on a daring ‘night ride’ to warn of the attack. But it wasn’t Paul Revere. A young woman by the name of #SybilLudington rode across the countryside warning of the troops. She was 16 years old.

burned to the ground, get on a horse & warn our neighbors
In honor of International Women's Day, we should remember Sybil Ludington, the 16-year-old girl who has been considered to be the female "Paul Revere", who rode over triple the distance to warn that the British were coming.

This is fantastic; thank you!
Are US citizens permitted to sign too?
Regardless I’m definitely promoting this. I’m an original modern revolutionary. This is NOT what we’d signed up for! Gratitude!
